On 22 November 1981, in the middle of their mammoth American tour, the Rolling Stones arrived in Chicago prior to playing 3 nights at the Rosemont Horizon. store.eagle-rock.com Long influenced by the Chicago blues, the band paid a visit to Buddy Guys club the Checkerboard Lounge to see the legendary bluesman perform. It didnt take long before Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Ian Stewart were joining in on stage and later Buddy Guy and Lefty Dizz also played their part. It was a unique occasion that was fortunately captured on camera. Now, restored from the original footage and with sound mixed and mastered by Bob Clearmountain, this amazing blues night is being made available in an official release for the first time.

Olá! Hummm!!! Que delícia!!! Parabéns a todos os que amam e fazem um bom Rock nesse dia! Não é por um acaso que "Os Pedras Rolantes" chegaram até o presente século! Viva o Blues e viva o Rock também!!! Eliane de Souza
Cuando veo artistas de esta talla, divertirse y generar un momento mágico para todos los tiempos, reafirmo que los artistas con generoso talento nos salvan al común de los mortales de la locura en que muchas veces los mediocres cotidianos nos quieren sumir.
